  • 6 Mind-Blowing Benefits of CBD for a Healthy Skin

    Your skin is not only the largest organ in the body, but it’s also the most visible to other people. As such, you will need to give your skin the extra care it deserves to keep it healthy and young.

    However, one should be careful with the products you turn to whenever you experience any skin problems because skincare products with harsh chemicals will only cause more problems. Some of the most common skin conditions are wrinkles, dryness, pimples, rashes, and redness. These issues indicate that something is amiss inside your body.

    The good news is that CBD is the perfect solution as it has various health benefits. It can help in restoring much-needed moisture and nutrients to the skin, thus encouraging faster healing of your skin. 

    1. Treating acne

    Numerous studies on CBD oil show that it has incredible anti-inflammatory benefits. This property is especially ideal for skins that are susceptible to acne because it can provide a calming effect. In most cases, acne results from inflammations, and CBD works on soothing the response, thus reducing the chances of more breakouts and redness. One can also grow marijuana plants at home by planting indoor marijuana seeds. Make sure you buy a wide array of industrial hemp farms products from trusted sources only.

    Additionally, another acne trigger is excess oil production on the skin. CBD hemp capsules can help lower the secretion of sebum, thus preventing and reducing acne breakouts.

    2. Skin cell rejuvenation

    The endocannabinoid system in the human body is responsible for the production of new cells. However, some people have a system that does not work well, which means their basal cells are not well facilitated.

    These cells form the inner epidermal layer that requires replenishment for their well-being. As such, if the skin is to remain in good condition, the new cells need to get space from the old cells.

    CBD oil can be the answer to the quest for skin rejuvenation. It can interact with skin receptors to help in the production of cannabinoids for perfectly glowing skin.

    3. Anti-aging

    Today, most anti-aging skincare products have CBD as one of their ingredients. The reason is that CBD contains antioxidants properties, which means that it has the potential to reduce the appearance of skin aging symptoms.

    Busy schedules in our lives mean that we have less time to follow a strict skincare regime. On the other hand, various factors in our environment, such as processed food diet, dehydration, and dirty environment, have an adverse impact on the skin.

    A study shows that CBD is the perfect boon for healthy skin. Antioxidants help in repairing damaged skin and reducing excessive wrinkles, fine lines, ruddy skin tone, and skin dullness. The best part about the use of CBD as a skincare ingredient is that it’s a natural and effective product.

    4. Rich in vitamins

    Vitamin E and D are crucial for the nourishment of the skin. These vitamins help in enhancing the elasticity of the skin. Besides, CBD contains omega 3 acids, which are necessary for healthy skin, where it can help tackle the problem of rough skin and conditions such as dermatitis.               

    5. Alleviates psoriasis

    Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that causes the deterioration of healthy skin cells. It encourages skin cells to multiply faster on the skin, causing abnormal patches. This condition can be hard to handle and is also painful.

    CBD oil can help in dealing with the pain caused by psoriasis. It can also help in controlling the increased cell multiplication. 

    6. Antioxidant properties

    When free radicals are present in the body, they can cause harm both internally and externally. Unfortunately, our environment is under trouble due to increased pollution, and as such, we come into contact with more free radicals.

    According to a study, the consumption of CBD provides the body with enough antioxidants. They help the body in combating various pathogens and carcinogens that could be life-threatening. In addition, it can help deal with several diseases for a better and healthier overall body.

    Care of sensitive skin

    The sensitivity of the skin may cause redness, coarse and dry skin, and dullness. Sensitive skin requires extra attention, where you will need to be careful not to land on harsh products. CBD oil is soothing on the skin and a natural compound. It’s also an effective topical that works well on dealing with various issues associated with sensitive skin.

    Various conditions in the environment cause harm to most skin types; it’s essential to incorporate CBD in your skincare routine since its calming effect ensures that your skin looks good throughout.

    CBD products for the skin

    There are a variety of CBD creams available on the market. Among some of the CBD products you can buy for your skin include:

    • CBD soap
    • CBD oil and serum
    • CBD lip balm
    • CBD salve
    • CBD bath bombs & salt

    Conclusion

    The cosmetic market has numerous products, and people are willing to spend a fortune in search of perfect skin. Unfortunately, most of these products are not natural, and they can cause more harm than good. CBD skincare products are the best way to go because they have overwhelming benefits and more so because it’s a natural remedy for various skin conditions. Moreover, CBD is a non-psychoactive product, and you can even use it as a detox drink for drug tests.

  • WHY Did HFI Stand Opposed To CBD Oil Legislation?

    Health Freedom Idaho believes strongly in the right of citizens to choose their own modes of healing. This includes access to natural supplements H577 requires a doctors note in order to purchase any products with CBD containing less than .3% THC. HFI is concerned about the unintended consequences of this legislation.  

    Read our series of research articles: 

  • CBD Oil. The Bill and Its Unintended Consequences

    Well intended bills can have unintended consequences. 

    Rep. Dorothy Moon’s bill HB410 is just that. Rep. Dorothy Moon is a wonderful legislator and a freedom fighter. She has heard the voice of her constituents that are asking for CBD oil to be legalized in our great state. She attempted several version of the bill, none of which the Attorney General would support. Understandably, Rep. Moon wanted to bring a bill that would be successful, but in so doing the proffered legislation has lost the liberty that she intended to provide. You see, the Attorney General has a compelling interest for the state, while legislators should have a compelling interest for the people.

    After days of study I have come to the conclusion that some of the unintended consequences of this bill are the following:

    • The citizen (who must be 18 years of age) is required to go to an MD. The MD will have to indicate that the individual suffers from an illness and may benefit from treatment with cannabidiol. Do you want the decision to use CBD products taken out of your hands and put into the hands of a medical doctor?
    • Once you submit to the authority of the MD, you will then have to submit to the authority of the state by providing your name, address, photo identification, along with any other information the board considers necessary in order to obtain a registration card.
    • What if you want to use CBD oil for your child? Well, the rules are a bit different. You, the parent, will then have to acquire a signed statement from a neurologist indicating that a minor in the parent’s care suffers from an illness and may benefit from treatment of cannabidiol oil. Parents, do you want this decision taken out of your hands and placed into the hands of a neurologist who may or may not have education in CBD oil at all? You will then have to continue the process of applying to the state for your registration card.
    • Keep in mind that the card is only good for ONE YEAR so you will have to repeat this rigmarole YEARLY.
    • A board will have to be created to oversee these registration cards. This costs the taxpayers’ money. This board will maintain a database of records including the name of each registrant and the name of each minor receiving care from the registrant. Do you want you or your child’s personal health information kept and overseen by a state run board?

    The police will then have to start enforcing this new law. I can see it now. The police officer pulls over the soccer mom on her way to taking her kids to school. He discovers her smoothie is made from hemp milk! Gasp! “I’m sorry Ma’am but do you have a registration card for that hemp milk?” Hopefully she didn’t add the hemp hearts from Costco to her smoothie that morning. That’s right! Your hemp products such as shirts, twine, purses, cooking oil, and milk will come under the authority of this law. What a waste of taxpayer money!

    The registration card is really the crux of this issue and is what the Attorney General required in order to support the bill. Now why do you suppose that it is important to the Attorney General that a registration card be required? MORE REGULATION and BUREAUCRACY!

    There are some pretty scary consequences to having the state tracking the method you choose for healing. Most do not understand the marijuana plant nor the properties that provide healing without enough THC to bring the high that most people associate with the plant. Most do not understand that when a product has less than .3% THC that it is considered food according to the federal definition. (See https://hfi.designbyparrish.com/cbd-oil-from-hemp).

    Do we really want to be begging the state for permission to use the products that we see fit to use? According to my research, it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that refined sugar is more dangerous than hemp products.

    In other states that require a registration card for marijuana we see that the state is denying the citizen’s right to gun ownership.

    Could the government potentially require gun owners to turn in their firearms?

    An Oregon mother had her child taken by CPS and put into foster care for months. The mother was using marijuana recreationally which is allowed in the state of Oregon. The boyfriend had a registry card as both a grower and a patient but the child was still taken into shelter care because he was growing the plants. The mother did eventually win in court and got her daughter back but at what cost both financially and emotionally?

    You see, the medical marijuana card may protect the right to obtain and use a substance but it is being used to target other rights. I think that we should learn from what is happening in that other states and not open the door here.

    There are more possible unintended consequences to consider about this registration card. How will this record affect a truck driver’s CDL, a practitioner’s medical license, the cosmetologist’s license or any other occupational licensing for that matter?

    We should never expect our legislators to hand out laws like candy. They are to uphold their oath of office which is to support the constitution. Each legislator takes this oath when sworn into office, “I do solemnly swear (or affirm, as the case may be) that I will support the constitution of the United States and the constitution of the state of Idaho, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of senator (or representative, as the case may be) according to the best of my ability.”

    I believe that the citizens should be asking for a better path that would Rep. Moon to both uphold her oath and also make CBD oil available to all who would like to use it.

    We will have more information coming out soon for those looking to understand the multiple factors surrounding this issue. Idaho’s attorney general interprets Idaho law to mean that any amount of THC is a controlled substance and the DEA has overstepped their bounds. 

    There is a lot to learn here in order to be prepared to defend your rights to access something as benign as CBD oil with less than .3% THC. When we see such a desire to control something with proven useful, nourishing, and healing properties we must ask the all-important question, “WHY?”

    UPDATE on the status of the bill. 

    Dorthy Moon removed the tracking portion and the bill got a new name – HB 577.

    It passed Idaho State Affairs Committee with a solid 12-0 vote. 

    House voted in favor of the bill with a whopping 59-11 vote ‘Aye’. 

    The Bill stalled in the Senate Health and Welfare Committee as Chairman Heider refused to allow the bill to be heard.
